Why Is It Called Texas Caviar?
Helen Corbitt, famed 1950s Neiman Marcus food director, first served “pickled black-eyed peas” on New Year’s Eve at the Houston Country Club, possibly as a reference to Hoppin’ John—a dish made with black-eyed peas and served on New Year’s Day to bring good luck and a year of prosperity.
